NL baseball writers choose
Cards’ McGee league MVP
Associated Press/
NEW YORK — Batting champion
Willie McGee, the flashy center
fielder of the National League
champion St. Louis Cardinals, was
named the NL’s Most Valuable
Player by the Baseball Writers Asso
ciation of America on Monday.
McGee received 14 first place
votes from a 24-writer panel, two
from each league city, and finished
with 280 points.
Dave Parker of the Cincinnati
Reds, who led the league with 125
runs batted in, finished second with
six firsts and 220 points. Pedro
Guerrero of the NL West champion
Los Angeles Dodgers was third with
three firsts and 208 points and
itcher Dwight Gooden of the New
ork Mets, who won the NL Cy
Young Award last week, finished
?:
fourth with one first and 162 points.
Tommy Herr of St. Louis, Gary
Carter of New York, Dale Murphy
of Atlanta, Keith Hernandez of New
York, John Tudor of St. Louis and
Jack Clark of St. Louis completed
the list of Top 10 vote-getters.
McGee, Parker and Guerrero
were the only players listed on all 24
ballots. Points were assigned 14-9-8-
7-6-5-4-3-2-1 with voters asked to list
10 players on their ballots.
McGee became the ninth Cardinal
player to win the NL batting title,
nitting .353 last season. It was the
highest average ever for a NL switch
hitter, topping the mark of .348 by
Frankie Frisch of the New York Gi
ants in 1923 and matched by Pete
Rose in 1969. Mickey Mantle of the
New York Yankees set the major
league mark in 1957 when he batted
.365.
Batting second in the Cardinal
lineup, McGee led the league with
216 nits and 18 triples. He scored
114 runs, third in the league and,
with rookie leadoff man Vince Cole
man, served as the catalyst for the
racehorse St. Louis attack which pro
duced 311 stolen bases.
McGee started the 1982 season at
Louisville of the American Associa
tion and was called up in May to re
place injured David Green. He won
a regular job, batting .296 and help
ing the Cardinals win the world
championship. In the Series, he set a
record for rookies by hitting two
home runs in Game 3. His 24 pu-
touts in the seven games tied an
other record.
New Astros manager adds Berra to staff
Associated Press
HOUSTON — Yogi Berra, a Hall
of Fame catcher and former New
York Yankees and New York Mets
manager, joined the Houston Astros**
Monday as an assistant coach, com
pleting Manager Hal Lanier’s staff.
“He’ll be a big asset to our club,”
said Lanier, named Astros’ manager
Nov. 5. “Yogi has been exposed to
every aspect of the game. He has
coacned first and third base as well
as managed.”
tanaged
Yankees and the 19/3 New York
Mets to the World Series, making
him one of only five managers to
represent both leagues in a Series.
Berra started last season as man
ager of the Yankees, but was re
lieved with a 6-10 record and re
placed by Billy Martin.
The 1986 season will mark his
16th year as a big league coach, hav
ing served the Mets from 1965 to
1971 and the Yankees from 1976 to
1983.
KS'Jrti* •
“Yogi is a proven winner and an
outstanding baseball person,” Astros
General Manager Dick Wagner said.
Berra has appeared in 21 World
Series', including a record 14 as a
player. He holds Series records with
75 games, 259 at bats, 71 hits, 49 sin
gles, and 30 consecutive errorless
games.
Big Ten not
interested in
Cotton Bowl
New Year's classic
looking at Auburn
Associated Press
DALLAS — The Cotton Bowl
could roll the dice on Bo Jackson
and the Auburn Tigers of the South
eastern Conference Saturday be
cause a pairing with the Big Ten
Conference doesn’t appear to be in
the cards.
Top-ranked
Penn State’s
move toward the
Orange Bowl had
Cotton Bowl
tournament se
lection chairman
Field Scovell and
executive secretary Jim Brock
looking at their contigency plans.
Michigan, of the Big Ten, has its
eyes on tne Fiesta Bowl and Iowa has
the inside track to the Rose Bowl.
Ohio State, a third possibility, plays
Michigan on Saturday.
A Big Ten team has never played
in the Cotton Bowl and officials had
considered a matchup with the
Southwest Conference Champion as
a good drawing card for the 50th
year of the New Year’s Day classic.
Auburn, 8-2, has only a Nov. 30
game against Alabama left. But the
Tigers want to be able to accept a
bowl bid this Saturday without nav-
ingto wait around another week.
The Cotton Bowl could gamble
and extend a bid to Auburn, hoping
it defeats Alabama and that Jackson
wins the Heisman Trophy.
“Penn State going to the Orange
Bowl didn’t surprise us because
Coach Joe Paterno has always said
he’d play the highest rank team he
could,” Brock said. “We had been
looking hard at the Big Ten, but
now all that is kind of up in the air.”
BowUnvitations can’t be extended
until 5 p.m. Saturday.
Baylor can become the host team
in the Cotton Bowl if it defeats
Texas in Austin on Saturday. A
Longhorn victory would set up up a
Texas-Texas A&M showdown
Thanksgiving night in College Sta
tion for the Cotton Bowl berth, if the
Aggies defeat Texas Christian in
Fort Worth on Saturday.
Baylor, Arkansas, and A&M are
all expected to go to post-season
games no matter now the SWC race
turns out.
Texas’ participation in a bowl
other than the Cotton Bowl is still in
the air because of the Longhorns’
unpleasant experience in a lopsided
loss to Iowa in the Freedom Bowl.
The Bluebonnet Bowl definitely
will go for an SWC team, which will
probably face Air Force, and the Sun
Bowl also is leaning in that direction
for a possible matchup with Georgia.
